You can celebrate World Class Cocktail Week in many different ways, with parties, masterclasses, and food and cocktail degustations. Plenty of bars and restaurants are also offering a special cocktail during the week. Here are six of the best.

Penny’s Big Bang at Canvas Bar
Canvas’s most popular cocktail tastes exactly like a cheesecake. It’s called Penny’s Big Bang and is made with Ketel One vodka, raspberry, lemon curd and mascarpone, and sprinkled with house-made chocolate-chip cookie crumbs. Try it for the special price of $15 all week.

Country-inspired cocktails at Vintaged Bar
Vintaged Bar are offering not just one special cocktail, but seven. For each day of World Class Cocktail Week, Vintaged Bar will create a different cocktail inspired by a different country. Monday will feature a cocktail from Holland, made from Ketel One vodka. Tuesday’s will come from England, with a Tanqueray gin–based cocktail. An Australian cocktail will be made with Bundaberg Rum Small Batch, an American cocktail with Bulleit Bourbon and a Scottish cocktail with Johnnie Walker Black Label Scotch whisky.

Old Fashioneds at Jimmy Rod’s Shave Saloon
Jimmy Rod’s barber shop is offering more than just a cup of tea while removing your hair. For a whole day, you can pop in and get a cut or shave and an Old Fashioned for $50.

Martinis at Madame Wu
However you like your Martini, whether dry (less vermouth), wet (more vermouth), dirty (with olive brine), espresso, or any other variety you can think of, Madame Wu will make you one for the special price of $15 on the Friday of World Class Cocktail Week.

Smoked Chocolate Manhattan at Stingray
You’ve had a Manhattan, but have you had a Smoked Chocolate Manhattan? Bulleit Rye whiskey, cacao liqueur and vermouth are mixed together, strained through hickory smoke and finished with a few dashes of chocolate bitters. It’s rich and smoky, and the perfect pairing for the chocolate-cigar dessert served alongside. Available all week.

My Thai at Mamasan
Mamasan’s signature My Thai cocktail is made with kaffir-lime leaf–infused Pampero Blanco rum, coconut liqueur, pineapple and lime. Every day during World Class Cocktail Week, order the My Thai and you’ll also get a mini passionfruit tart. The tart is topped with coconut foam, toasted coconut and a smattering of lime zest, and is a perfect match for the cocktail.
